Hi Michael et al,

After an initial test of "[value-extended name="mv_searchspec" joiner="\n"
index="*" ascii="1"]" in the results page title box, I though it had solved my
question, however I have found some instances where it doesn't quite work, for
example if se=s-video then the title becomes s\-video and I have also found that
if doing a search using the small search box in the vertical category bar that a
0 (zero) appears before the search word eg if the search word typed in the box
is 'cable' the title becomes '0 cable'.

Can anyone suggest a fix, for single words in a search URL it works a treat, I
guess it just needs a slight mod to perfect it??

Many thanks in adavnce,
Andy.
